Mexico sports tourism and infrastructure development

Overview

Mexico is focusing on boosting tourism through large-scale sporting events and infrastructure improvements. Tourism Secretary Josefina Rodríguez Zamora announced the HYROX Acapulco 2026 fitness competition, scheduled for September 5–6, which is expected to attract over 13,000 athletes and generate an economic impact exceeding 200 million pesos. Additionally, the ‘Tulum Renace’ plan is being implemented at Parque del Jaguar to improve beach and archaeological zone access through a new tourist corridor.

Efforts to expand sports tourism in Acapulco have continued with officials highlighting the city’s capacity for international events. Beyond the HYROX competition, the government of Guerrero is pursuing a bid to host the 64th Annual World Boxing Council (WBC) Convention in November 2026, leveraging the city’s previous experience hosting the convention in 2022.
